"Don't Tread on Me" Navy coin

Exhibiting fierce pride and an insatiable appetite for victory, America’s military has vigorously defended the cause of freedom for more than 200 years.
Battling America’s enemies on near and distant shores, the courageous warriors of America’s Armed Forces have confronted each and every threat to the nation’s security with trademark tenacity and unparalleled skill.

The bold fighting spirit of America’s military men and women is captured in the classic slogan: “Don’t Tread on Me.” This enduring motto, which traces its origins to America’s Revolutionary War, still serves as an emblem of the strength of the world’s most powerful military force.

This coin pays tribute to the men and women of America’s Armed Forces, who risk their lives to secure our freedom. The obverse replicates the design of the original
ensign displayed by American forces in the Revolutionary War. The reverse depicts an emblem of the US Navy, featuring an eagle grasping an anchor in its talons, encircled by chains and rope, symbolic of naval traditions dating back to the nation’s first ship.

Minted in a brass alloy and finished in bronze, this coin is imbued with enamel accents on both sides. Each coin comes packaged with a header card that contains a tribute to America’s Armed Forces.
